Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This beautiful vase-shaped 20' tree is outstanding for its terrific four-season interest. Deep dark-green foliage is the perfect foil for its masses of pure-white summer flowers. The leaves turn vibrant shades of orange to red in autumn before falling to reveal the attractive peeling cinnamon-colored bark. This is choice as specimen or massed; nice for urban gardens as it is pollution tolerant. S/M
